Don't forget "dumb cluck" or "don't pout or a rooster will roost there!"
Chicken lingo LETS HAVE SOME FUN
Or how about "dig that chick" (from the old days...LOL)
Chicken legs - referring to thin legs. Although some chickens have pretty hefty legs at the top.
Got a crop full - overate
Chicken -too scared
Don't lay an egg -meaning don't get so upset, although chickens don't get upset when they lay eggs, they get excited.
How about 'chicken' as in cowardly?

Don't count your eggs before they hatch
You forgot "Cock of the walk", and "too many roosters in the henhouse".
Sorry, I couldn't resist!

Being "cocky"
Cackling like a bunch of hens---women gossiping among themselves...lol
Some people are "good eggs", but even they can "lay an egg" when they are "egged on" to do something stupid and end upwith "egg on their faces".
oh, BAD!
I know. I came up with it while I was looking for a good candling site. It is making me eggcentric.
hurry up with that candling already!
Good one Catscan!!

Doesn't really fit, but my grandmother has a sign in her living room that says, "Raising kids is like being pecked to death by a chicken." Now that I have had my own, I know what she is talking about...
ahem...she's no dumb cluck!
